  • Marine seismic bottom geophone coupling and anchor
    Patent number: 5365491
    Abstract: A marine seismic bottom geophone anchor and coupling device comprising two rectangular fabric sections attached along their edges and along a plurality of lines between edges to form a plurality of pockets. The pockets are filled with a weighting material. Connecting means are provided so that when the combined fabric sections are wrapped around a marine seismic bottom geophone, it will be held in a generally cylindrical form to simultaneously anchor the geophones and associated cables at a desired marine bottom location, isolate the sensors from noise sources, and provide good coupling to the marine bottom for receiving desired seismic signals.
